So I'm using a mesh with a blushing texture that I hide in my character's head to create a blushing face with a shape key. I've done this before with no problem.

The only difference between this time and last is that I'm using a single texture for both the face mesh and the blushing mesh. Could that be causing the issue?
Here are my transparency settings:
